115 pts on my license see how it goes
Since I learned to drive many years ago there have been cars I liked maybe should have bought but passed me by. A long period of company cars where someone else dictated what I drove. I have to say in the event of a large lottery win the Mrs can pick a big house out whilst behind her I'll be renting a big heated unit and buying a number of cars to stick in there - probably need a mechanic...... and a body specialist too.....

Mostly I'd be looking at pristine examples of various French and Italian cars then some oddities from all over the world - have a hankering for things like old Yugo's from when I was a lad and old Skoda's and Ladas because we all love an underdog. Christ knows if I would ever drive them all but the idea of being able to choose between a Renault 6 and a Citroen C6 appeals greatly and I want to know if some of the dogs from the past were dogs. Many journalists who drove nice big cruisers thought a SEAT Marbella 850 was shite for some reason. I think they used the Boris Johnson method of reviewing cars tbh.
 
If I had money I'd deffo do the same, big heated unit, a few nice cars and bikes, ramp for maintenance, some memorabilia on the walls, seating area with big telly, maybe a bar.
I've always wanted a merc, scratched that itch, I'd love a 911, or maybe a cayman s, but for now I'm happy with the e class, I'll keep it for a few years.
Money no object I'd have a ferrari 355, love that shape, a v12 lamborgini, not bothered which model, they're all bonkers, an original mini Cooper, and a jaguar e type convertible.
One can but dream
 
Money no object I'd have a Morris Minor Estate and an Austin A40 Farina Countryman both converted to a K series engine a 5 speed box and disc brakes all round. "Sleepers" ready to test the unwary. Oh and a Landcrab and a Maxi for shits and giggles
